Marcus Rashford already acts as a culé: he trained and awaits the announcement

Marcus Rashford is already taking his first steps as a FC Barcelona player. Despite not yet being officially presented as an addition to the Blaugrana team for the 2025/26 season, the former Manchester United player is already seen as one more under the orders of Hansi Flick.

The 27-year-old striker attended the Joan Gamper Sports City for the second consecutive day. This time he had the opportunity to meet his new teammates in the Catalan team, since it should be remembered that, although he also attended the Culé facilities on Monday, the Blaugrana squad had a day off.

However, he could barely receive the welcome of his new coach, Hansi Flick, and the sporting director, Deco, in addition to passing the respective medical tests.

Individualized training for Rashford in his first contact with the group

Now, Rashford, in the morning training session supervised by the German coach, had the opportunity to take to the pitch with his teammates to listen to the German coach's instructions in the first of two sessions scheduled for this Tuesday. He also began to gradually integrate into the group. However, Marcus did not work alongside his new teammates, but did so individually.
